3.16.37-rc1 review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Takashi Iwai <tiwai@xxxxxxx> commit c7c999cb18da88a881e10e07f0724ad0bfaff770 upstream. hci_vhci driver creates a hci device object dynamically upon each HCI_VENDOR_PKT write. Although it checks the already created object and returns an error, it's still racy and may build multiple hci_dev objects concurrently when parallel writes are performed, as the device tracks only a single hci_dev object. This patch introduces a mutex to protect against the concurrent device creations.
